Was cooking a lil crab stew at the shop while kids playing.

Man I'm jealous of your pond, boy if that wind would die down I think my corn could actually get a couple feet taller. Yeah my boy is 18 months and goes to the beer fridge in my shop and gets me a beer and him a capri sun so we both win
. I split up most of my crops into two different plantings as well. Most of what you can see in my pics are the early plants, but it seems that the earlier planting really only benefited the corn and contender bush beans( however on the bush beans the later plants or 3 weeks behind date wise but look like they are only a week behind as far as producing ready to pick beans). I have learned that it was a waste of time to transplant squash, I started all my squash plants in my shop under lights and they didn't take well. My first 15 or 20 squash ended up being chicken food due to blossom end rot from a shallow root system, but after some TLC they are on the right track now. My biggest cukes are around 3 to 4 inches and my tallest plant is only about 16 inches up the trellis(sp).
